We had the best weekend, cabin is very clean and comfortable, Elaine and her husband are wonderful people, very friendly and helpful We can't wait to come back!!!
Had an amazing time!! Got there later than expected but the host was very accommodating with that and even allowed us to stay past check out time to make up for it! Love the peace of being there and the river access was awesome!! Definitely will be back for my next getaway!!
The cabin was perfect for an annual father / son and his dog weekend. The place was clean, quiet and comfortable. Love the uniqueness of the old cabin. Its and easy walk to the river and a quick trip to Steelville if you need something.Hosts were great and communication was excellent.
We stayed here over the holiday weekend of 4th of July 2024. Had such a wonderful time enjoying the property. LOVED the river and hope to be back there again this year!
We really enjoyed our time here
We spent a lot of time at the gravel bar on the river - our dog loved playing in the water
The cabin was decorated cute with lotus of old charm
lots of fire wood for night time enjoyment
Would love be to make this a yearly trip
This is a great place!!! Elaine was wonderful to work with and full of great information!! We mostly hung out at the river, we had a wonderful time and will definitely be back! If you wan seclusion this is the place for you!!!
it was 20 degrees outside when I got to cabin. owner forgot to adjust thermostat so it was 45 inside cabin. got to 50 in cabin by 10pm, and didnt get into 60s in cabin til next day. Also had to kill 24 wasps inside cabin. owners did respind with extra wasp spray and traps. overall a really nice place with good room for dog to run and had river access which was realky high. bad timing weatherwise. if improve wasp problem would possibly return
We really enjoyed our fall trip there. The cabin was one of the best parts of the trip. We went to see the cave and hike but the cabin was truly a lovely experience by itself. The hosts were very accommodating when we needed wood or Wi-Fi. (My phone was on the brink).
Due to weather, we spent most of our time at the cabin. Which was a great time. Games were available and we enjoyed smores and the fire pit. All around nice experience. Would highly recommend it to others to stay there.
Love the cabin and the fact you have no neighbors well except the cows. So pretty and trail to river was fun for the bunch of us. Can't wait to return when we have warmer weather so we can float the river. Owners are wonderful to work with and very helpful. A+++

Comfy beds, lots to do. Rainy but did not matter at all. Awesome walk to river. Close to winery.
My family had a wonderful time. The cabin was wonderful. A variety of movies to watch, the kids loved the Tic Tac Toe & Checkers games. The boys loved exploring the outdoors. River access was very close. the clearing by the river with a picnic table was nice. My son-in-law was so impressed, he says he wants to buty it!
It was a cute little cabin. We enjoyed playing games and skipping rocks. It was so cute! The only downfall was the driveway. We would stay again if we visit our son at college.
